I buy these coats every single year for my kids. They are so warm and cozy. They always come in new fun colors every year. Also having an attached hood is key.
I wanted a warm and practical jacket for the winter months in Chicago, my son can be outside and get on all the fun with this jacket without feeling constrained by the material. An added plus for us is how easy is to clean up after snack time, just wipe it down with some water. I highly recommend it to anyone that wants to be be worry free.
This coat is awesome; my young children love it b/c of the lightness (as far as weight) and the warmth. Some different colors and a mixture of colors would be even better.
This jacket is super warm and cute!
It does run a bit big. My son is small, but he is 19 months and the 12-18 is good on him but has room for growth over the long Chicago winter.
The only jacket I trust to keep my kids warm in the Boston and Maine cold. Because the down is super compress-able, I also feel totally comfortable having my kids wear it in their car seats. Love that it's hooded and the hood fits great in the event you forget or lose your hat (AHEM - my son).
This is the 3rd jacket I’ve purchased for my son and the last. It’s exactly was we were looking for. Light weight and warm, easy for him to move around in. Sorry I didn’t start with this
We got this jacket because the one we had was getting a bit too small & we loved the style of it (similar to the one we currently have by a French company Obaibi). Our child got the choice of which color they wanted and was excited to receive the new jacket when it came in. Also liked that the pockets on the jacket can be zipped shut and that t... Read Morehe tag has a place to write your child’s name. One downside is that there isn’t a hook loop sewn into the jacket to easily hang at school or home, having the jacket to either be hung on a hanger or by the hood. Will be sewing in a hook loop since this is how our child hung their jacket - by the sleeve hole(picture attached LOL). Our child currently wears a 2T and we got a 3T, so it is a bit large but not too large where they are being swallowed by the jacket.
Really happy we bought this for our four year old daughter. It compacts well enough that we can still get her strapped into her car seat without taking it off. Patagonia products have unbeatable quality in my opinion.
This coat runs big but that comforts me that he will be able to fit it throughout the entire winter. I love the hood which adds an extra layer of warmth for babies. Easy to put on and well made.
Our toddler loves his jacket. It is super warm and, unlike other jackets, he likes wearing it. It also compresses enough that we can put him in his carseat with the jacket on. He is 20 months and small, wearing 12-18 month clothes. The 12-18 month jacket fits him perfectly. It will definitely last him all winter. Next year, we will reorder with a b... Read Moreigger size.
My son is 2, 35" 30lbs and it's slightly large (3T) but it will fit him this year and next. I always put a sweater under it for super cold days and it's perfect with a little room!
My daughter has worn one of these every winter for basically her entire life, from 1T as a near baby to 5T now as a near 7 year old. Next year we will probably go to the kids size XS.

After a year of wear, that's about how long it takes her to grow out of them, the jackets are in perfect condition and ready to pass on for reuse.
A couple seasons ago they went away from the metal zippers to a plastic one. It seems like the plastic is a little lower quality, but it's much easier to zip/unzip and it never gets caught. I'd say, net, it's a wash. Besides that, the quality/fit has stayed consistent over the five years I've been buying them.
The jacket is a nice weight and warmth for our child. No complaints about the fit. He seems to like it just fine.
The only complaints are that the shell seems like it might tear as soon as it gets caught on a stick or something (though it has not ripped yet!) We would also have liked to have a pocket that the jacket can zip up into for storage / pa... Read Morecking.
My 15 month old (24 lb) toddler fits this jacket perfectly with still plenty of room to layer and possibly could even wear next winter! He has been wearing this jacket alone in 40 degree weather and does not get cold at all.

Love this jacket! My son wore his last one for 2 seasons. We loved it so much bought another one for the next 3. The jacket is worth the price and stays in great shape for younger siblings, cousins, or friends.
I had to return the wobbly blue color because it stains and shows stains very easily. Although it’s a super cool color, the fabric is very sensitive to everything. Returned it for the navy color. You are better off going for darker colors. So far so good.
Very happy with this coat. In cold upstate NY and this is my 2nd jacket for my two year old. Warm but light weight and still easy to put my toddler in his car seat. Will get this every year.
This is our third year buying this jacket for our toddler son and we love it. We feel confident that it keeps him warm during very cold Michigan winters while still being very light weight. I’m not taking any stars away but we purchased the new wooly blue and in person it’s more of a powder blue with a shiny finish to the coat and I’m not the bigge... Read Morest fan of the color. I think next year we will stick with the darker navy or gray.

Perfect!
Fit is perfect and keeps my 5yo warm on cold days! My son hates bulky coats so this was perfect for him because it still allows him to move and play!
Amazing, adorable and so wonderful! My little guy just gazed and gazed at himself in the mirror. Then he said, "picture." All set for winter.
Purchased this coat for my 4-1/2 year old. He is super skinny and tall (33lbs and 45”). It’s hard to find coats that are long enough for him without being too wide. This one is puffy and long and perfect in every way! I purchased the 5T size and we might even get 2 winters out of it. While playing in 20 degree weather my son said he was too warm!
Got this coat for the cold Chicago winters. It is super warm and still car seat safe. I am in love with the color, too! So much better in person (Gray, yellow combo). We got the 2T for my average sized 20 month old and it is a little big, but hoping we can get another season out of it. Definitely recommend.
I bought the same jacket last season for my then one year old. Now that he is two, he needed the 2T. I tried the 3T but it was way too big. He’s very tall for his age but slender. The 2T should easily get him through this winter. I have found these jackets to be warm, durable, and comfortable. It’s wonderfully light weight and not too bulky, which ... Read Moreis great for a toddler. They seem to work really well in a range of temperatures. It’s definitely worth the price.
This is the third high loft jacket our sons has had (he keeps growing somehow). All the previous jackets have held up enough to be passed down. I’m sure we will buy another in a years time.
We have not have the chance to test out the coat in the elements yet, but my son tried on his new winter coat for fit and refused to take it off. Loved it.
This is our second jacket as our son is too large for his first (his sister is making great use out of his hand-me-downs). Great down jacket for those cold days. Has stood up to upstate New York winters and now mountain winters in Colorado.
Well made jacket, but not as heavy duty as I had hoped for. We live in Moscow and I was looking for something that would work for the winter it looks like it will have to be layered more than I expected. Also it ran a little large.
My wife and I have purchased this jacket for our son for the past 3 years. This jacket is extremely comfortable and it breathes which we find very important for our active 4 year old. This jacket can also take an absolute beating. Simply throw it in the wash and it looks brand new again. When it get super cold in NY the jacket has enough soave for ...

I think it’s helpful to know that the colours may not be exactly as pictures. We ordered the plains green at first which we thought would be more of a kelly green as it appears on the website- in fact is closer to turquoise and rather feminine. We replaced this with the blue colour which is also rather light- more of a cornflower blue than a dark s... Read Moreaturated blue as it appeared on my computer screen. I am happy with the blue colour in fact although it isn’t what I elected. To add, Patagonia customer service was, Is and continues to be exemplary. They made the return easy and it was done with no expense to me even though i am a Canadian customer.
The jacket itself is amazing in quality and fit. Only concern is the colour- shop wisely!
We bought this jacket for my son who is a super sweaty kid when he was 1.5. We purchased a 2t, luckily it runs rather large but flexible with the stretchy wrists. He wore it for 2 winters! The jacket held up incredibly in all settings and he wasn't ever a bucket of sweat as I anticipated. I probably had to wash it a thousand times and maybe lo... Read Morest a few feathers but that was it. It is super warm but breathable as well. I recommend it to every parent that comments on it! Hes now 3.5 and I am reordering a 4t because I know it will last another 2 winters. We love the product and the brand, worth every penny!
We have purchased this jacket for our daughter in multiple colors and sizes over the years as she has grown. She plays outside in cold Chicago winters and this jacket keeps her warm and dry. It has also held up very well. For an active kid, we also find that this style of jacket is less cumbersome than a longer style that dips below her hips. We wi... Read Morell be buying a new one this year!
I purchased a size 3T for my 2 YO son who is on the larger side, and it fits great with room to grow. I’ve always purchased the down sweater but this seems to have more substance for our cold NH winters. It’s very soft and am looking forward to using this all winter long!
My kids have had this jacket for a couple years and it’s been great. We just received the two jackets for this year and they feel a lot thinner than last years. I don’t think they’ll be warm enough, so I’ll be sending them back.
Sorry to hear that the jacket felt thinner than past seasons models. The jacket is filled with 82 grams of down, same as past seasons but we have changed the down fill from 600 to 700. We will reach out privately to help with a return or replacement.

So warm, so cute
I bought my son a T3 and he just turned 2. This jacket is a bit large on him right now, but my hope is he will wear it for at least 2 winters. He likes it quite a bit and often doesn't want to take it off when we come inside. He gets lots of compliments on it.
Love this coat for my 5 year old. Not too bulky but keeps him really warm (we tested the theory this past weekend when he left it at school and had to wear his Gap coat from last year which didn't stand up to the temps nearly as well). It may seem like a lot to spend on a toddler coat but I know it'll hold up well so it's a good inve... Read Morestment. He might even get two years out of it..and then it gets passed down to little sister.
Super warm even without the bulk. Should be a great carseat coat if needed. The Vjosa Green is a perfect color, especially for a girl. The 12-18 month fits great on my 12 month old, who is tall and slim. There definitely is room to grow and could add a layer underneath if needed but it does not look huge on her which is great.

We bought this coat in a size 3 in 2015 for our then 2 year old daughter. She wore it daily over all late-fall/winter till she was 3.5 by then her baby brother was 16 months and big enough to fit it last winter and he is wearing it now, for his second winter. Last year for our daughter instead of the puffer we tried going for layers with the Baby D... Read Moreown Sweater, Retro-X vest, and a synchilla hoody combo. It's worked well too, but this year we just went back to the Down Sweater Hoody. It is amazing. our first coat has undergone so much, through 2 kids x 2 winters (4 seasons) and yet still looks great. We launder it in cold-water wash in the machine and dry it in the dryer on low-fluff cycle with a couple of tennis balls and it's perfect. At the end of last winter the zipper did start to sometimes split. This fall we took it into our local Patagonia shop and they are repairing it for free, so that our son can use it again. We got our daughter a new one for her this year at size 5. I expect this will be the same coat they'll both get every other year. Love that it's also super pack-able, works for car seats, and travels very well. We've never had issues with fabric ripping.
Bought this jacket for my 3 year old daughter. I love the color, it’s very bright and vibrant. The jacket is great for winter and surprisingly thin which allows me to put her into the car seat without taking it off.
The forest grey was a beautiful winter addition. The color wasn’t appealing at first, but I figured I’d give it a go. The color is surprising beautiful. It looks slightly different in person, resembling a deep forest green as opposed to grey. My toddler is on the smaller size so the Patagonia will got him well through the winter with some wiggle ro... Read Moreom. Most importantly, my son is warm! He was complaining about feeling cold with his old (different brand) down coat (perhaps because the feathers escaped during several washes). This one is so light but warm.
My 3 year old son has worn this jacket since the cold set in this fall. He's an active outdoor kid,even in northern,snowy Michigan winter. The fit is perfect. Durable. VERY happy and I will be sad when he outgrows this.
I bought this coat in size 2T for my son in fall of 2016 (16 months old at the time) and this coat is still going strong. I have a busy toddler, now 2.5 years who wears this coat daily for all of our adventures and it has held up great, and better than I expected. It keeps him warm and cozy. He takes this everywhere with him like a blanket. I expec... Read Moret he will fit it through the end of this winter/spring, (34 lb right now) and if we're lucky use it early next fall before going up in size.
